Took the 68 bus in to Bedford this morning. It takes a very circuitous route so it takes a bit longer than driving. but of course you don't have to drive around searching for a parking space. And it meant I got a view of suburban Bedford. Lots of 1960s semis much like any other southern English town of similar size.

As we were getting close the bus station, about a kilometre away, I spotted a big Sue Ryder shop so I got off at the next stop. Bought a colourful bracelet and a sparkly necklace that I'm wearing as an ankle chain.

Now I'm in the Popins café where I've just had a steak and kidney pie and a pot of tea. Just what I wanted on this slightly chilly morning. Proper hot food.

Today's outfit is my red jacket with the Next leopard print skirt that I bought yesterday in the Kempston RSPCA charity shop for a pound. The waistband is folded over once and pinned with safety pins, I'll et around to sewing it one day.

I've decided that I'm going to take the bus back to the hotel today. So I have half an hour to kill before catching the 14:20.

I'm in the Hidden Barrel having a half of Gravitas pale ale. It's only three minutes walk to the bus station.

I wonder if I'm not eating enough, or the right things, or if I'm anaemic. For quite a while now, since before Christmas, I've felt that I never quite get up to speed. Or perhaps age is finally catching up with me. I'll get my doctor to check when I get back to Norway in September.
